Hi all i am a happy owner of a RSP DUO since 4 days!
I bought long time ago a mini whip active antenna in aliexpress.
I leave the link for more technical info better than write it here.

My doubt is the next:
When i plug the 12v to the antenna i have a question, can the dc power return to the RSP duo and damage it? , should i use a DC blocker?
Thank you in advance.
Don’t worry, the interface box of your antenna will already have a DC block of its own. No DC will get into your RSP as long as you connect it correctly.
Thank you, thinking about it with a polimeter I canciĆ³n ser if the SMA cable has voltage.
Hehe than you again!
